This was my first solo metal wrapping job, and the whole job came out very well in the end. The client was also very pleased with the results. It took me a few pieces of metal to learn the sweet spot measurement when looking at a fascia with 3 or 4 bends in it. The difficulty was learning how to account for the bent-edge of a piece of metal being bent multiple times around a board or molding. The more difficult part was dealing with the bees inhabiting the cracks I was wrapping... that was the worst! Afterwards, I was very satisfied with the results. Check it out.

The siding was removed some time ago to install a window on this nice family's home, so I came out to repair it. Just to make a note, the siding was on the ground for awhile, so it collected a little dirt.

My first Cel-Pak blown in insulation job, and it was a great success! I blew in 12" in roughly a 30' by 50' attic. I used markers to keep myself on track, so it wouldn't be hard while blowing to stay at my 12" height. I did have to construct a staging to elevate stuff away from the insulated attic floor, so you can somewhat see the design of it all in my photos, which are a little dark. Check them out, enjoy!

I did have to cover each front face of this staging so the insulation would not fall through.

My helpful friend Mike, who I hired to assist with the loading of the insulation looking eager as ever to get started!

About This Wood Warrior

Enthusiasm for the industrial arts came about ever since I could play Legos as a very young child and once I reached an age where the design of homes was itching at my curiosity, it was all over from then on. I have been fortunate to work for a few carpenters alike who have shown me many tricks to the trade of construction. After working under so many contractors, it was decided that I was going into business for myself, J.S. Industrial Arts Co; while also going to school at Central Maine Community College for the latest education and practices in Building and Construction Technology. My courses and school resources give me an advantage in the field I feel separates me from other builders in a positive way. If I have questions, they get answered and not from just another builder but a competent and experienced educator who's job it is to teach up to date information as well as stay tuned to the latest and best building practices.
